Ever since hearing this, I've wondered what would happen if one did have a lightyear of lead. Is it possible to stop a neutrino without destroying it?

What would happen if I collected a bunch of stationary neutrinos in one place? What would they look like? What would they feel like?

Considering they really hate interacting with stuff, they probably wouldn’t feel like anything.

So could I pick up a lump of neutrino matter? Or would they pass right through my fingers even when stationary?
